Carlos Amezcua is a journalist best known for his sixteen years as the original co-anchor for the KTLA Morning News, with Barbara Beck as his co-anchor, Mark Kriski handling weather and Sam Rubin reporting on the entertainment industry. Airing at 5:00 am, the crew became comfortable and humor crept into the newscasts. Managing executive Steve Bell described the show as, “the first one with the crazy anchors". In September 2007, Amezcua left KTLA for KTTV, where he replaced John Beard as anchor of the Fox 11 News at 10:00 pm; he left KTTV in 2013 to establish his own media company, Carlos Media Corporation. From 2015 to 2019, he served as a co-anchor at KUSI-TV San Diego. He is currently (2020) the co-host of the Carlos & Lisa show (Lisa Remillard) on BEONDTV, and KDOC-TV Los Angeles.
